Responsibility - CityHub

A BETTER WAY TO TRAVEL

Everything we do at CityHub stems from our love of travel. But we know that the freedom and joy we feel when we’re exploring comes at a price for our planet and our future. So from the very beginning, our founders Sem and Pieter have made it their mission to re-imagine the traditional hotel experience into something more sustainable. We work hard to create a positive impact on the beloved cities that host us. And in doing so, set an example for a more conscious travel philosophy based on smart solutions and a sharing culture.

The more we share, the more we have

OUR HUBS

Redefining the hotel room

Our compact and energy efficient Hubs, made from fully recyclable materials, breathe new life into unused space by repurposing vacant buildings – drastically reducing each traveller’s carbon footprint by an epic 65%.

COMMUNAL LIVING

Embracing a sharing lifestyle

Sharing is nothing new. But a communal living approach is one of the best ways to reduce tourism’s carbon footprint. The Hangout (our reception, bar and lounge area in-one) and our shared bathrooms make it possible to enjoy a high-quality experience at a more affordable rate.

THE BASICS

A holistic approach

Sustainability might be sexy right now. But real solutions take a 360 degree approach. From researching and assessing new projects in new cities to our everyday operations like laundry, housekeeping, water-saving and waste management, we strive to do better every step of the way.

THINK LIKE A LOCAL

A conscious way to explore

We work to reduce the negative impact of tourism as much as we can. It all starts with respecting our host city and communities with small initiatives that make a big difference long-term. So refill your CityHub water bottle, hop on one of our bikes, and check out our favourite local businesses via the CityHub App.

GIVING BACK

Sharing with those in need

Together with local charities, Homies Foundation and GiveMe5, we make use of the availability of Hubs off-season by providing temporary accommodation to people experiencing homelessness.

Stat: 152 nights of accommodation for homeless people in 2021.

We’re always looking to improve our impact vision and evolve our sustainability mission. Find out more about our efforts here.
